Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds baby potatoes
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and dry the baby potatoes, then cut them in half. If the potatoes are very small, you can leave them whole.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Toss the potatoes in the mixture until evenly coated.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese onto the prepared baking sheet, spreading it out in an even layer.
Place the potatoes cut-side down on the Parmesan layer, pressing them slightly to ensure good contact with the cheese.
Bake the potatoes in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the potatoes to cool for 5 minutes before carefully lifting them off the Parmesan layer using a spatula.
Transfer the potatoes to a serving dish and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
